The Car Connection Expert Review

The front-drive, mid-size Galant
sedan is roomy, attractively styled, and rides on a rigid structure for refined
ride comfort and handling characteristics and possesses a quiet interior. A
160-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine is standard in the base version,
while a 230-horsepower 3.8-liter V-6 is included in LS and GTS versions.
Four-wheel disc brakes come standard, with anti-lock brakes included on the two
highest trim levels. The top GTS model adds more aggressive chassis tuning and
17-inch alloy wheels and
performance tires for improved handling prowess. A long list of standard
features includes front-side airbags; leather seats, heated side mirrors, a
power sunroof, and a Sport Package are optional. The Galant sees relatively few
updates for 2006.

An overall great, reliable vehicle, and last for years!

Its a pretty decent car. When regular maintenance is done, the car rides smooth, and is quiet, like any other vehicle. Overall, great car! I've had mine for 7 years now. I'd recommend one to anyone.

all in all a reliable car considering some of its inherent problems like the servo and sometimes erratic MAF sensor (which I replaced recently). it blends the right amount of power and economy specially in our traffic condition in the Philippines. even though its 17 years old, it still handles pretty well and still shifts good, with minimal shift shock and can out-perform some of the newer 2-liter cars in the market in terms of acceleration. I fitted it with 17in. all-weather tires that minimized the body roll (maybe because of its rear multi-link suspension)
I'm satisfied with the over-all performance and I'm thinking of passing it on to my daughter for her daily driver when she starts working. + More »

This, still lovely lady, with just over 51,000 original miles, has plenty of spunk. Doesn't look out of place on the highway. Replacement parts such as tires, battery are at a minimum considering her actual age. I would highly recommend this vehicle on all levels. I have driven much newer cars that do not compare to her in matters of smoothness and management. + More »
